Yo,
today's just another one of those days I've had to admit it's not easy being
J -Live
But bust this now, the topic to discuss is,
it's even harder sometimes just being justice
J -Live's just known to spin a record,
spit a verse
Justice
Alive's just
God of the universe
Which means a civilized,
righteous, original man
With knowledge of self and wisdom
you can understand
Nothing less, nothing more,
nothing holy, nothing pure
Nothing gas, just steadfast and sure
When something comes up,
something goes wrong, something gets done
If it's not a way, my will will make one
My plans are planets,
grown and made from the beginning
But now my game plan's
going into extra innings
But if it's a game,
that means somebody's winning
And if it ain't me, nah, see, it's gotta be
In this game of life,
you score with every breath
The odds is to retire on your own terms
Never undefeated,
just with a winning record
So when it's there, after you're gone,
you're still respected
But now I gotta fall back, it's a transition
It's not an impossible mission
But man, listen,
I can't say I'm not struggling
Swinging nine planets at the same
time feels like juggling
Don't get me wrong and
don't get it twisted
I wasn't drafted into this life, I enlisted
Family, business, music, it sweetens the pot
But what I need to know is
What do you do when you got 20,
2 minute tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Aw man, forget it
What do you do when you got 20,
2 minute tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Shouldn't have bullshitted
What do you do when you got 20,
2 minute tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Stay committed
What do you do when you got 20,
2 minute tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Just deal with it
Sunrise, sunset, sun, time flies
But is it a fly ride or a fly by?
Most of my moves are long
term I must say
I'm not fly by night, I'm here to stay
I wanna fly lifestyle with some fly things
But I won't fly to the sun with wax wings
You catch more flies
with honey than vinegar
But you better be prepared
for the bee stings
Whether you're beehive climbing
Is nine to five in a ramen
It's all about timing
Time kills and it don't stand still
Them times when you just can't tell
Well, time will
That's why I got no time to chill
I run late when I save things for later
I deal with it, ill with it in the last minute
It's like I'm some professional crastinator,
but I still can't let time swallow me
Truth is, if I master equality,
it'll all add up in the end
But I can't pretend these bad
decisions don't follow me
Sunrise, sunset, son,
get your shit done
Deadlines take all the fun from things
that shouldn't even feel like work
Now work your nerves,
cause time waits for no one
So it's time now to own up to it
From time to waste and the time's up,
I run to it
It's not supposed to be
easy being me
But I shouldn't make it harder
on myself when I gotta do it
So I'm hard on myself so I can go from saying
I'm used to it to saying I used to do it
But today as I'm going through it,
there's only one thing left to say
What do you do when you got 22 minute
tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Aw man, I get it
What do you do when you got 22 minute
tasks and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Shittin' the bullshit
What do you do when you got 22 minute tasks
and 10 minutes to deal with it?
Stay committed
What do you do when you got 20?
2 minute tasks and 10
minutes to deal with it
Just deal
with it
Just feel good, baby, just feel good
